Good news healthwise
Well, yesterday was pretty much good news, healthwise. Went in for a Heart Catheterization, to get some details regarding my Aortic Regurgitation, and see the status of my heart in advance of surgery.
Bicuspid (Most people have a TriCuspid) Aortic Valve has (recently?) started leaking. (Question on the recently, because I have never had any indication about it previously in my life, but also never had anything specifically looking at the heart in that detail. However, there has been no changes in the heart as a result of it.)
Yesterday confirmed that there is nothing else wrong with my heart, no blockages/narrowing. So while I should get the valve replaced sooner rather than later, it is not urgent enough that I have to get it right away.
This is good, as I will be able to fully fund my HSA next year, to cover most of the Out of Pocket costs. (This was >$600.00. Their 25% discount took it down enough that it was worth it to stick it on a credit card.
Time to RESEARCH!!!
